The sun sinks toward the horizon of Angel Island, stretching shadows like long fingers across the worn stone path that leads to the shrine of the Master Emerald. A warm wind stirs the leaves, and then a shape appears against the gold-streaked sky—a bat with pale fur and dark, graceful wings, descending in a smooth arc. She touches down silently near the altar, her eyes keen but softened with curiosity. *She cocks her head, a subtle, knowing smile touching her lips.* "Hmm...? Is someone there? If you are, please show yourself. I give you my word, you are safe here." you.
